CFDA 84.366B Assessing with Learning Progressions in Science Instructional Tools In this packet you will find a set of instructional supports for science materials. These documents represent the work‐in‐progress of teachers in the Assessing with Learning Progressions in Science Project, a Math Science Partnership through the Northwest Educational Service District in Washington State. While we encourage others to use the materials, please know the power of these tools lies in the collaborative discussion and analysis that occurs during their creation. We strongly suggest that anyone utilizing these tools make them your own, adjusting them to fit your teaching context and district priorities. Professional development tools to aid you in this process are available on the ALPS project web page www.nwesd.org/nwalps. For access to editable versions of these documents please contact Nancy Menard [email protected]. Overview of the Tools (not every unit tool‐set will include all of these tools) Unit Overview The unit overview grid lays out learning targets or important scientific ideas from Washington State Standards for each investigation in the module and clarifies the success criteria for each learning target. It also details the formative assessments that have been designed to assess each target in the investigation. Learning Progressions A learning progression is a graphical representation of the path students take toward mastery of a science “big idea”. The ALPS Learning Progression documents include a description of an important big idea from the Washington State Science Learning Standards and the progression of building‐block learning targets that students master on their way toward an understanding of that big idea. For each building‐block learning target the student success criteria is identified and one or more formative assessment tasks to elicit evidence of student understanding are suggested. Formative Assessment Tasks The suggested formative assessment tasks are examples of tools used by the teachers in the ALPS project to gather evidence of student understanding. The Assessment Task Cover Sheet details each assessment and gives administration tips and suggestions for instructional adjustments based on some of the common student struggles they encountered. Student Work Samples Selected student work samples from students in ALPS classrooms give a picture of the range of student responses gathered from sample formative assessments. The Student Work Sample Cover Sheet describes the student work samples and the teacher’s interpretation of student understanding.
